| The Holy Bible, Douay-Rheims Translation
Eds. Dennis McCarthy, Tad Book
This text of the Holy Bible, which has long been a
favorite of English-speaking readers, was generously and
meticulously transcribed into electronic form by Dennis
McCarthy of Atlanta, GA, and Tad Book, a student at the
Pontifical North American College in Rome. Initially
released in 11X6, it was uploaded to Project Gutenberg, where
it remains available in multiple formats. This edition,
like the original printing of the edition revised and
annotated by Bishop Richard Challoner, contains the entire
canon of Scripture, along with three apocryphal books, which
have been traditionally included in printings of the Bible.
Two other books are included in the original English
translation and spelling, to give an idea of the nature of
Bishop Challoner's revisions. Completely retypeset, this
edition is a treasure for any Catholic. 568 pp., English.
